Which task, though my heart would not serve t' employ my hands beneath, I made my women yet perform. Many, and much in price, Were those integuments they wrought t' adorn thy exequies," Which, since they fly thy use, thy corse not laid in their attire, Thy sacrifice they shall be made; these hands in mischievous fire Shall vent their vanities. And yet, being consecrate to thee. They shall be kept for citizens, and their fair wives, to see." Thus spake she weeping; all the dames endeavouring to cheer Her desert state, fearing their own, wept with her tear for tear. THE END OF THE TWO AND TWENTIETH BOOK. THE TWENTY-THIRD BOOK OF HOMER'S ILIADS. THE ARGUMENT. Achilles orders justs of exequies For his Patroclus; and doth sacrifice Twelve Trojan princes, most loved hounds and horse, And other offerings, to the honour'd corse.

Thus mourn'd all Troy: but when at fleet and Hellespontus' shore The Greeks arrived, each to his ship; only the Conqueror Kept undispersed his Myrmidons, and said: "Loved countrymen, Disjoin not we chariots and horse; but, bearing hard our rein, With state of both, march soft, and close, and mourn about the corse; 'Tis proper honour to the dead. Then take we out our horse, When with our friends' kind's woe our hearts have felt delight to do A virtuous soul right, and then sup." This said, all full of woe Circled the corse; Achilles led, and thrice, about him close, All bore their goodly-coated horse. Amongst all The...

Download or read book Chapman's Homer written by Homer and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2000-12-17 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Chapman's translations of Homer are among the most famous in the English language. Keats immortalized the work of the Renaissance dramatist and poet in the sonnet "On First Looking into Chapman's Homer." Swinburne praised the translations for their "romantic and sometimes barbaric grandeur," their "freshness, strength, and inextinguishable fire." The great critic George Saintsbury (1845-1933) wrote: "For more than two centuries they were the resort of all who, unable to read Greek, wished to know what Greek was. Chapman is far nearer Homer than any modern translator in any modern language." This volume presents the original text of Chapman's translation of the Odyssey (1614-15), making only a small number of modifications to punctuation and wording where they might confuse the modern reader. The editor, Allardyce Nicoll, provides an introduction, textual notes, a glossary, and a commentary. Garry Wills's preface to the Odyssey explores how Chapman's less strained meter lets him achieve more delicate poetic effects as compared to the Iliad. Wills also examines Chapman's "fine touch" in translating "the warm and human sense of comedy" in the Odyssey. Oft of one wide expanse had I been told That deep-browed Homer ruled as his demesne; Yet did I never breathe its pure serene Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold. --John Keats

Book Synopsis The Mystification of George Chapman by : Gerald Snare
Download or read book The Mystification of George Chapman written by Gerald Snare and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Chapman (1559–1634) continues to cut a significant figure as a dramatist and translator of Homer, but his reputation as a poet has fared poorly. The common critical view has made him notorious as a writer of “difficult” poetry, to the point of being considered guilty of deliberate and wanton obscurity. Gerald Snare argues that the fact of the matter is quite the reverse: his supposed difficulty as well as the moral and philosophical imperatives that are assumed to dominate his work are in fact the construction of critics. The Mystification of George Chapman is an argument against the accepted view of Chapman's art. Snare examines Hero and Leander to determine the nature of its poetics and its relation to Mousaios and Marlowe; he reports on the imitative strategies of Ovid's Banquet of Sense and declares that it deserves a reputation quite different from that of the most difficult poem in the English language; and he refers to Chapman's own criticism found in the prefaces and notes often attached to his poems. The author finds Chapman's poems were responses to the critical pressures inherent in adapting Greek, Latin, and contemporaneous English authors to his art, and he disputes the modern critical tendency to assume that doctrine, and not poetic practice, was the primary source of poetic energy in the Renaissance.
